Netflix is definitely pursuing the quantity over quality strategy, which doesn’t appeal to me.
That said, there are some really strong offerings hidden in the noise. The shift to originals over licensed is hurting the average quality level... but it definitely makes sense as a long term play.
It still makes sense for me and I am happy support the many gambles they take with content... even if most are lackluster.

The other half who wants to pay a fixed monthly price for somebody (Netflix today) to keep them "entertained" for hours while filling up their non-working hours.

The 'Net just made us more aware of the latter category.
